Wow. I suggest watching the last couple episodes of season 2 before watching this to remind you of where the show is coming from. That was my mistake.
The Orville really has earned the right to be known as today's real Star Trek reboot. This episode wasn't relying on the comedic moments, although there were some but it covered a topic that is timeless, poignant and thought provoking in such a way that the OG Star Trek or TNG approached subject matter.
It wasn't the way these most recent lousy shows try to put their political message into them, or Woke messaging. The Orville achieved getting their message across with excellent writing, respect for the topic, allowed the viewers to ponder their own thoughts and they did all this while being entertaining. Kudos to all at The Orville for intelligent story telling without putting viewers off or disrespecting the viewers.
I'm glad we have good sci-fi back on screen again.
